Abstract: | A series of fluorescently labeled fatty acids of various chain lengths with 4,4-difluoro-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene-8-yl (Me4-BODIPY-8) residue in the ω-position were synthesized. These acids were used to prepare new fluorescently labeled phosphatidylcholines, sphingomyelin, and galactosyl ceramide. The symmetry of the Me4-BODIPY-8-fluorophore suggests that, in most bilayer membrane systems, this fluorophore would be embedded into the bilayer. |
